In Saturday’s front page story “City asks police: Give up raises for 2 years, forgo uniform allowances & pay more PERS” it was incorrectly stated that officers are being asked to “pay 5% percent more to their Public Employees Retirements System that would kick their contribution from $260 to $445”.
